RadioNation with Laura FlandersLIVE from Las Vegas and RenoThis Weekend, RadioNation comes to you live from the Culinary Hall in Las Vegas and the Progressive Leadership Alliance in Reno.Saturdays & Sundays, 7-10pm ET on Air America RadioWant to know how red state Nevadans came to vote for new taxes?

Find out how casino workers built one of the strongest unions in the country and how women could claim two Congressional seats for Democrats. With D Taylor, Secretary-Treasurer of the Culinary Workers Local 226, Assemblywoman Sheila Leslie and Kristina Wilfore of the Ballot Initiative Strategy Center.We've got good news from Nevada, this weekend!And as always, a one-hour version of last weekends's show is available for podcast at The Nation's website: www.thenation.comIt's all on RadioNation with Laura Flanders this weekend on Air America Radio.

Let me talk about the podcast mentioned above because there's some confusion from two members who don't listen to podcasts. You can go to the website and you can listen. You don't have to podcast to listen to the one-hour version available at The Nation website. Or maybe you do. Dallas is checking links for me and he can't pull up RadioNation. It's there on the page, he clicks and waits and waits. So though no Blair on Facts of Life, I had a brilliant idea, Air America Place but . . . Dallas just checked and there last archived broadcast is from February 5th. Well, there's always the traditional ways to listen to the full broadcasts when they air on Saturdays and Sundays: via broadcast radio (if there's an AAR in your area), via XM Satellite Radio (channel 167) or listen online. And I actually do listen to Podcasts. It's not that hard. I'd recommend you download Juice on your computers. (That's my personal recommendation. Not C.I.'s or the recommendation of the community.) It's free software and you can listen on your computer to podcasts with it. You can also use it to listen on an iPod but you don't need one to listen to a podcast. But the point is, listen! Thanks to Dallas for hunting down links and if there are typos in Ruth's entry that just posted, they are my typos. To get that up, Ruth dictated it to me. Hold me accountable (like I'll care), not Ruth.

This is for the likes of failed comics who think they can threaten via e-mails and then whine, "E-mails are supposed to be private." E-mail threats will be turned over to the FBI and they will be noted here with the names and anything I feel like quoting.
